White Otter Castle
White Otter Castle is a magnificent three-storey castle that was hand built in 1903 by Jimmy McOuat, a lonely prospector who had lost all his fortunes in the gold rush and gambling. Built on the shores of White Otter Lake, it was single-handedly constructed the log castle from red pine logs that McOuat cut, hauled and interlocked. White Otter Lake, part of Turtle River Provincial Park south of Ignace, has an area of approximately 80 square kilometers.
Each year visitors marvel at the enormity of the feat of one man, alone, hoisting three tonne logs of green timber four stories in the air to erect such a building. A 1.1 million dollar conservation project was completed the "Friends of White Otter Castle" will ensure that the castle remains for future generations to visit. Just north of the Castle are the ruins of a logging camp/Prisoner of War Camp that has its own story. You can walk to it from White Otter Castle.
